A Select Library of Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers of the Christian Church, Vol. 8: Second Series, Translated Into English With Prolegomena and Explanatory Notes (Classic Reprint) - Softcover
Synopsis
This book, a translation of a portion of the works of Saint Basil, offers a glimpse into the life and thought of one of the most influential figures of the early Christian church. Basil was a theologian, orator, and bishop who lived in the 4th century AD. His writings, which include sermons, letters, and theological treatises, provide valuable insights into the development of Christian doctrine and the challenges facing the church in his time. Basil was a skilled writer and an astute thinker, and his writings display a deep understanding of the human condition and the nature of God. He was a strong advocate for the Nicene Creed and a fierce opponent of Arianism, a heresy that denied the divinity of Christ. Basil's writings played a significant role in shaping the development of Christian thought, and they continue to be studied and debated by theologians and scholars today. They offer a rich resource for understanding the history of Christianity and the enduring legacy of one of its greatest thinkers.
